Former ISU Student Suing Over Sex-Based Suspension

Illinois State University is the latest school in the country to face a lawsuit over how it handled a complaint about sex between two students. A former male student sued the school yesterday, claiming the university violated his rights when it suspended him and banned him from campus after a female classmate said he sexually assaulted her. The student says he was punished before there was ever a hearing. He was later cleared and no charges were ever filed. The lawsuit asks for a million dollars.
